Just give money, get gun. Don’t even need a record of it. Neither federal law nor Texas law requires private sellers to keep a record when they sell a firearm. https://www.sll.texas.gov/faqs/private-gun-sales/
minus-squareValorie12@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·11 hours agoIIRC if the dude online is shipping the gun (any firearm), it needs to go through an FFL, and that requires a background check. Meetups in person do not, though. That is a private sale.
